Replacing the Lamp

The projector lamp typically lasts for about 700 hours of use. It is time to replace the lamp when:

•You notice that projected images get darker or start to deteriorate.

•The bulb goes out or the lamp light flashes green and orange five minutes after the power has been turned on.

•The lamp light turns red.

Contact your local EPSON dealer or call EPSON Accessories (800-873-7766 in the United States) for a replacement bulb. Use only replacement lamp type MSCR150E3H, part number 1023661.

◆Warning: Allow the lamp to cool before replacing it. During use it becomes hot enough to burn you.

1. Turn off the projector and disconnect the power cable from the wall outlet.
